### Etymology 1

From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *s-ŋa-k (“forehead; cockscomb”).
This word is only attested during Han and later. Wang (1982) suggested that it is cognate with 顏 (OC *ŋraːn, “face”), whereas Schuessler (2007) considers it a semantic extension of 詻 (OC *ŋɡraːɡ, “to face”).
The relationship to Proto-Mon-Khmer *[t₁]ʔah (“forehead”), whence Khmer ថ្ងាស (thngaah), is unclear.

### Etymology 2
#### Pronunciation

* Wu (Shanghai, Wugniu): $^8$gheq; $^7$eq
* Wu
** (Northern: Shanghai)
*** Wugniu: $^8$gheq; $^7$eq
*** MiniDict: gheh$^入$; eh$^入$
*** Wiktionary Romanisation (Shanghai): $^5$hheq; $^4$eq
*** Sinological IPA (Shanghai): /ɦəʔ¹²/, /əʔ⁵⁵/

#### Definitions

額
* (Shanghainese) Alternative form of 個 / 个 (“possessive particle”)

##### Usage notes

* This is a Mandarin influenced form of the character often used in Shanghainese. Due to 個’s expected pronunciation starting with /k/, it is often mistakenly analysed to be unrelated to this sense.
* This cannot be used in other Northern Wu languages, such as Suzhounese, due to their retention of the /k/ initial.
